Does anyone have an example of an HTTP client that doesn't support
changing or adding headers?
I certainly can't think of any. Limiting request methods is one thing
but not allowing you to modify headers is pretty crippling.

Hmm, didn't think about that. I guess you will need to have some kind
of request body anyways. Do you think that the request method should
be set in the data though, or should it be set in the header, since
the method/header defines how the data should be interpreted? I know
that's just splitting hairs, but there was some concern about keeping
the api as clean as possible.
I think the whole point is to support minimal HTTP clients. If they
don't
support PUT or DELETE, there's a good chance they don't support
custom HTTP
headers either.
